Best places: Things to dos in Del Norte County, United States

A steep, forested park with campsites, trails & rugged coastline with a sandy beach & tide pool.

Playful attraction with chainsaw tree sculptures, an aerial tramway & a 35-ft. Paul Bunyan statue.

Wooden viewing deck above the Pacific coast, with expansive sea views & whale sightings possible.

Gentle 0.8-mile trail winding through redwood groves, creeks & other forest scenery.

👍👍 This place is Awesone. I gave it 5 stars yet I have 1 concern. Getting down to the beach has set of stairs that can be challenging for elderly, or people with physical limitations. But it is way worth the fun, the views, and it's worth the fun of finding agates and sea glass that's mixed in with the...

Scenic picnic pullout overlooking ocean & estuary with sightings of gray whales, seals & sea lions.

👍 Loved the beach, loved the waves, not crowded but it could have been due to it being a Thurs afternoon & fog all around. It was pretty neat! We walked the beach for a while picking up shells & found a few sand dollars. And we loved seeing the sea lions in the harbor across from the beach

👍 The third hike we did on Howland Hill road. Kinda long hike for a small waterfall at the end. But the whole time we hiked we were surrounded by huge redwoods. Not wheelchair accessible. Most of the trail your walking on tree roots so bring very stable hiking boots if you don't want to roll an ankle....

Wild protected state park with limited camping facilities & an abundance of native birdlife.

👍👍 Went down to re-explore the Harbor area. It has all the boats to look at & lots of birds!It also has the best place in town to eat named Crescent City Seafood~~Oh my!! They have really good food!! Fish & chips of course & if they have it, fresh Halibut & chips! My favorite halibut!! You must try it...

👍 We always love camping here. I do feel like the management is different than last time though because it's not as kept up as it used to be. Bathrooms were dirty and not well stocked and the grounds we kind of trashed (which should be the campers job to clean up after yourselves). Otherwise, a great...

This secluded 5-acre beach with grassy dunes & driftwood is popular for walking, fishing & surfing.

👍👍 Spent the night at the turn out just before the overlook right where the pct crosses the 101. After a small morning walk on the trail, we had our coffee watching the waves. What a great day.

👍👍 My favorite place to just park my car, open the windows, move my seat back and take a nap. Taking in the fresh air and ocean sounds.

👍👍 I spent two days in Crescent city waiting out a pretty nasty storm. When it broke we finally left our hotel and headed south on the highway, towards the redwoods. Our first stop was this beach and wow was it impressive! Living on the coast of Maine I’ve seen a lot of pretty beaches but I was stunne...

Easy 1-mile loop path winding through fir & spruce forests, plus views of offshore sea stacks.

👍👍 Amazing! Lots of different sights and views points. Sadly it was really windy and raining when I went so I didn’t see a lot! But differently check this out

👍👍 Love Crescent Beach. Great for long walks, beautiful on clear days and beautiful and mystical on foggy days. You could become a sand dollar millionaire here. Easy parking off 101 or go to the beach on the south end where they have bathrooms. No fee areas on this beach.
